Either you don't have busybox installed or busybox isn't linked to the cp directory. Go into /system/xbin/ and see if you have the busybox file. If you do, go into the terminal emulator and type

su

ln -s /system/xbin/busybox /system/xbin/cp

reboot

Then go back into terminal emulator and follow the steps above, as cp should now work.

If you don't have the busybox file in /system/xbin/ you need to download busybox by Stephen from the market and install it. Then follow the steps in the above paragraph.

The reason using astro will never work is because you are S-On. This means the system partition is read only, thus why you can't just copy and paste bootanimation.zip directly into /data/local

I am S-on and never had a problem with busybox. You can also try installing Titanium Backup because I think it automatically installs busybox. If not, you could always download the busybox file here http://db.tt/d5Mmujc and adb push it to the directory.

i already looked into that, but i dont have the right hboot. i need to UPgrade. but dont know how.

i will try that titanium backup
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] unsivil_audio:
You do have superuser installed don't you? If not, you probably aren't rooted like you think you are. You will need superuser installed to use titanium, and rom manager, and clockworkmod. If you DO have CWM, boot into it, and create a nandroid backup.

Go the HTC website and download the 2.2 RUU, and run it on your phone (this will upgrade your HBOOT to 1.02), now you will be able to s-off via Alpharev's method. Install CWM boot img, and restore your nandroid backup. And just like that, you're s-off and rooted.

OR...you can probably skip all that and just run unrevoked's root tool. It will install busy box and superuser for you. Then Astro should work perfect for you.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] lsusparky621:
+1 for unrevoked if you don't want to try S-OFF.

[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] lsusparky621:
This is the wrong thread to be doing this in, but what the hell. Here is a quick rundown of how to S-OFF. It makes life so much easier.

Go here and follow steps 1-9 on post #84. HOWEVER, instead of downloading Clockwork 2.5.0.1, use this link for Clockwork 2.5.1.7.

Use this link to download the 2.2.2 Update, since it is no longer available to download on the HTC site.

After completing steps 1-9, use post #83 to install your recovery. I ignored the first paragraph of that post, though. Make sure USB debugging is on!

After your recovery is installed, simply restore your nandroid and boot!

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WrlsFanatic:
Just curious: As an EVO user, I've had Gingerbread on my phone for about two months now, but there isn't a 2.3 Epic ROM to be found. Is there really no work being done for 2.3 for the Epic yet? Forgive me if there's something I don't understand, I'm obviously not a dev and don't fully understand what goes into building something like that.

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
Search next time there are at least a dozen pointless threads asking this exact same question and getting the same answer. NO, the source code literally dropped less than a week ago and no other phone is even vaguely similar to ours with source to build drivers from.

Where is the TROLL SPRAY?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WrlsFanatic:
Oh I'm sorry, you guys are so right. I'm such a douche bag. Obviously if I use the search function and look for Gingerbread and 2.3 I get TONS of results that... oh, wait... I get nothing. Interesting as that's THE SAME THING I GOT LAST NIGHT WHEN I SEARCHED!

Still, I do appreciate your answer 063... glad the source finally dropped. Yet another reason why I would never personally buy a Samsung device, but for my wife it's fine.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nullghost:
Not to sound troll-y, but source for our froyo update dropped a couple days before the update itself. HTC doesn't do that very often.

Short answer: We're working on it. Expect to see some early testing builds here in the next week or two.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris41g:
The source for 2.2.1 was released for epic, not 2.3/2.4
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WrlsFanatic:
Oh, interesting. I assumed he meant that the source for 2.1 only now FINALLY dropped... but it was 2.2, huh? Interesting. Well, I would commend them if their update weren't bricking phones. Maybe they SHOULD wait until they are 100% certain that the release is solid before dropping the source on the world.
[Atrix 4G General] jzaslice:
Hey everybody, the Atrix is my first Android device and I havent stopped playing with it since I got it. Im curious to what the difference is between the "Media Area" (manage applications>move to "media area") and the internal phone storage? from what i see, anything i move to the "media area" goes to the internal phone storage.

Also while using Root Explorer i saw 2 folders "/sdcard" and "/sdcard-ext" where ext is my external sd. i checked this after noticing that my ADW launcher backup files were NOT on my sd card. and with root explorer the files were in the "sdcard" folder, which is different from my "sdcard-ext" folder.

Can anyone please explain how or why the files that claim to be saved to my sdcard are actually saved to the other "sdcard" file setup by Android? and the difference between the media area and phone storage, why are applications set to "move to media area" rather than "move to sd card".
[Atrix 4G General] bendoe91z28:
There is a storage location option under sd card settings. I haven't played with it yet though.
[Atrix 4G General] edgeicator:
Your phone has an "internal sd card" due to the way the OS is configured. sdcard-ext, as you already know, is your external SD card. Your "internal card" is divided as follows: 2GB for Android OS and webtop software, 2GB dedicated for app installation, and 11GB for media storage. This 11GB partition is called /sdcard/ in addition to media storage.
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
So out of curiosity how do you mount the External SD card when you plug your phone into your computer? In my cappy it would just show both SD cards as different drives but it seems when I plug in my Atrix it only wants to show me my internal SD card.
[Atrix 4G General] edgeicator:
It shows both for me, but sometimes it bugs out and doesn't properly mount the internal storage. A quick reboot fixes it for me.
[Atrix 4G General] jzaslice:
Thanks for that explanation..but yeah I've never seen both when plugged via usb ...good to know tho. Is there a way to set apps or back ups to the external SD card ?
[Atrix 4G General] diedemus:
if you go to sd card & phone storage settings and change the windows media sync storage location to the external sd card both will show if you mount the phone as mass storage.

if you mount it as windows media sync whichever is shown will be the one that shows on the media sync window that comes up on the pc

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dperls:
Was curious if there are other NYC Atrix users out there and how you've been finding your service. I get terrible service in my office and coming from a blackberry on ATT that never happened before. I sit with below full bars pretty much constantly most of the places I am. Also, my speeds are pathetic, never seen above 1500kbps down speed test. Was curious if maybe something was up with my device itself...

anyone else out there have similar experiences, how are your speeds in NYC?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mawells787:
I'm sorry you're having those issues i'm in lower Manhattan and my service has never been better. However, take that with a grain of salt since i'm coming from an iphone 4. But my data sessions have yet to timeout like they used to on my iphone 4, no dropped calls...yet and reception is a little better. Even with 1 bar of service where my iphone wouldn't connect to 3G the atrix open pages really fast. I was on 42nd St on the west side last night and my gf iphone kept losing service and slow data speeds while my atrix was downloading and opening pages perfectly. My speed test have been getting better i have been able to hit 2500-3100kbps in lower Manhattan which is not too bad considering they haven't officially launched 4G in NYC, with the exception of the capped upload speeds which only get 200kbps.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dperls:
I'm actually happy to hear you are getting better speeds then me. I'm in midtown east and cant see the service being any "worse" up here. Maybe it is the device...curious to see what others have to see
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSlacker:

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdlopez83:
Same results as you Northern Queens , All of Nassau up to Huntington. I got the highest today in Port Washington. 1.8 down.

Calls Are fine like my pal just said.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekonus:
I'm in mid to eastern long island and I'm getting around 1.5-2 meg down and never more then 400kbs up on the speedtest.net app. This is coming from my Aria on CM6.1 which was getting over 3 meg down and like 1.5-2.5 up on average. I'm hoping once at&t starts rolling some better speeds like they are promising things will get better. I had to admit, though. Other than when actually doing speed tests... i don't notice the difference. Pages and other things still load fast. So I can't really nit-pick the numbers when in all reality the difference isn't really noticable. As far as phone service goes, I've been loving the Atrix. I get about the same bars I use to with the Aria, which is more than I use to get with the iPhone 4 I had before it. Call quality on the Atrix is amazing, though. The phone speaker and speakerphone are both very clear and vibrant sounding.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drillerbklyn:
Excellent question. I have been so pissed at my friends and clients with no reception on their iphones that I pretty much vowed never to go with at&t, until the atrix came out. Sounds so far that the atrix is working better than the iphone but can't wait to hear more from owners. Thanks for the NYC question.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muodypl:
Hello,

I know, I know... old problem, yet there is still no definite answer to the question of continous random freezes. My HD2 is also experiencing them (worked fine for about 3 months, during which it never fell down whatsoever)

but!!!

I knew from a few days before the first freeze that something was wrong. The bottom of the phone was getting incredibly warm while heavily using the hardware (watching HD vids, browsing web etc.) Me being stupid did not think of it till today. So once again, knowing that my HD2 would freeze, I plugged it in to recharge the battery. This time - enlightened by the thought of old overheating problem - I put it right next to the opened window - it was -1 *C outside. Results? No freeze! Battery fully charged for the first time without a random reset! In my case this is definitely temperature-related problem, it could possibly not be just mine.

The question is: How to lower the temperature? I don't feel like using my phone in a fridge or moving to subpolar areas. :)

EDIT @28.02

So far my theory is correct. Once I kept the screen on for 10 minutes and was far enough away from the window, the phone restarted itself (and I was not abusing the hardware; I was, in fact, just writing a text message.) Normally it would shut down right after the attempt to load and stabilize the main screen, but since I put it right next to the window at the PIN window, it cooled down and now works fine again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevedebi:
Maybe it is the battery, you could try an inexpensive replacement one from ebay.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muodypl:
Well, ebay is off the limits for me, but I will surely try some cheaper counterpart. It's been over a week and thus far my theory is proving to be correct - low temperature = no freezes.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnerz:
The heat might also be caused by lots of stuff running in the background - have you checked this out as well?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muodypl:
Of course I did - Task Manager is one of the 3 apps on the main screen. ;) I always make sure nothing is running, be it an app, or an unnecessary process.

But yes, some of the applications do increase the temperature, however I find that normal... well, as long as the heat does not make my HD2 shut down!

EDIT @ 09.03:

Waiting for a new batt to arrive. I just hope this is just some minor energy output problem and that's why my hd2 is overheating, leading to shutting down.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muodypl:
Got my new battery from a pretty decent company. Normally after turning off the phone and even reattaching the battery I'd have problems turning it on again (would have took me several attempts); however this time it went very smooth.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fishonabike:
Any update on use with the new battery? I have the same overheating/screen lock problem with my HD2. Mine has done so after taking a call and having the phone up to my ear for several minutes.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muodypl:
Unfortunately it wasn't the battery. The most common circumstances in which my HD2 freezes is trying to use the internet, followed by playing music from the Sense player. The only thing left to do is to return it.

I declare HTC HD2 and the HTC tech support piece of junk.

Final edit:

Sold my HD2 and bought Desire HD. <3 Android!

"The first attempt at changing the roaming mode will be slow - don't worry, this is supposed to happen.

I will honor refund requests within 24 hours since the new market only gives you 15 minutes to try out an app.

Please refer to the website for questions and report issues to roamcontrol@gmail.com. Please allow a reasonable amount of time (at least 24 hours) for a response."

I can't get it to work either.... I select roam only and it makes no difference... using 1.5.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrGreg:
There are a few reasons that you might see issues with Roam Control:

1. Your phone isn't rooted. I've seen some people update to EB13 not knowing that it took away their root. You should see some type of pop-up error if this is the case.

2. You have a Samsung phone and you live in a 1900mhz only area. See here. You will see your signal disappear if this is the case.

3. You are using a pirated version of the app. I can't take any responsibility for issues with an unlicensed copy of Roam Control. Honestly, I would be a little nervous giving root permissions to a pirated app, but that's just me.

It's always possible that something else is wrong too. Usually an uninstall and fresh re-install through the market fixes things. If not, feel free to send me an email and I'll be happy to help!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
Mrgreg. I've noticed roam control stoped working on any of are froyo builds after the newest update. I haven't been able to locate a older version for testing as I'm afraid of installing a pirated app with root permissions. I'm willing to work with you on solving this matter if you like

Do you mean the newest update of Roam Control? What specifically are you seeing? Do you see any error messages, does your phone lock up, etc?

I have a new version on my computer that's more similar to 1.4. The underlying implementation is the same for all of them but the trigger mechanism is different. I need to do a little more testing (have been super busy this past week) and I'll push it out the the market. I expect it to help with intermittent issues that a few people are having.

Greg, if there's any way you could send a few of us a copy of 1.4 for testing purposes (I'd be happy to verify my purchase...somehow) maybe we could help figure out what's going on.

One thing I'll mention, it seems if I toggle back and forth like a spastic child between auto and roam, eventually it will roam, on the auto setting, then switch back after a minute or so to a sprint tower. Rooted EB13 with overclock kernel (same issue without). Hope this helps.
